We prepare our fruit smoothies
in our Vita-Mix, but they can be prepared in any blender on high speed. If
your blender container is small, or if you are preparing a fruit smoothie for
one person, cut the recipe in half.

Begin by thoroughly washing
all the fruit.

Cut the cantaloupe in half and
then into wedges. If you're using a Vita-Mix or other high-powered
blender, the seeds may be included in the fruit smoothie; otherwise, remove
them. Cut off and discard the rind from each wedge, and place the cantaloupe in
the blender container.

Add peeled bananas to the
blender container. Cut the apple into quarters, cut out and discard the
core, and add the apple to the blender container. Peel the orange, remove
any seeds, and add the orange to the blender container.

Add the flaxseeds and ice,
cover the container, and run at high speed until the smoothie is thoroughly
blended. Serve immediately.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31):
'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth
and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to
all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move
on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant
for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very
good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live! (d-22)
